Foreword

The first edition of Bruce Peel's Bibliography of the Prairie Provinces appeared in 1956. It quickly gained a deserved reputation as one of those basic bibliographical tools without which historian, librarian, social scientist researcher, Canadiana dealer, academic, could not, any longer, find his or her way through the literature on the prairie provinces of Canada. The late F. Hedley Auld, the then Chancellor of the University of Saskatchewan, wrote the Foreword to the first edition. He noted how the bibliography 'pictures kaleidoscopically the occupation and development of a region of great agricultural importance which became in the course of a few decades the new home of a multitude .. .' He noted further that the events encompassed in the bibliography were so recent that many persons were still living who had a part in the actual occurrence. It was a commentary on the interest sparked by Mr. Peel in Western Canadiana that many titles not listed in 1956 came to light in the years immediately following publication. A Supplement to the Bibliography was prepared by Mr. Peel and published by University of Toronto Press in 1963. Now, ten years later, a new, enlarged edition of the original work is to appear. Bruce Peel's Preface to the Enlarged Edition is at once a comprehensive introduction to the bibliography and a general comment on the lure of bibliographical research. The bibliophile who would succeed must have patience, pertinacity, time, money, interest, friends, prestige - and a publisher - if he or she is to bring a project to fruition. Mr. Peel's interest, ability, pertinacity, and dedication shine through the piece. And what a piece it is! When the Northwest became a formal possession of Canada there was at once provided for the young nation a backdrop of nature's best, on which broad canvas man might trace out, and work out, and record his progress. The Bibliography of the Prairie Provinces in its enlarged form carries forward the arrangement found so successful in the first edition. Chronology, subject, title, and author arrangements give added emphasis to the time factor, the rhythm of change from fur trade to agricultural pursuits, and the development of a regional literature written by prairie dwellers. The chronological arrangement is particularly helpful to the researcher who must find his way through eighteenth and nineteenth century writings, and who must weigh the relevance and importance of each work. No apology need be offered for the need of -an addenda. A pioneer work such as the Peel bibliography will not be definitive and it is only to be expected that unlisted items will continue to appear. The value of the addenda far outweighs the minor irritation of a break in the serenity of the chronology.

Foreword

The Peel bibliography ranks and deserves to rank with the great bibliographical works of Canada. It is a tribute to devoted research, and it is a work of scholarship. The subject arrangement speaks of the basic ingredients of the western land - space, sun, wind, water, and man's coming to terms with these forces. Students of prairie society will ignore these environmental factors at their peril and come to terms with them to their advantage. Prairie Canada is a young society as men count time. The memory of man is short and subject to erosion. Oral history, tradition, legend, and myth slide into time past, to be obscured and lost amidst the fastnesses of ridges of memory formed of times long spent. Were it not for signposts, no one could find his way back of beyond. The Peel bibliography provides a clear, well-marked, and dependable highway back through our history to our beginnings. This work is a contribution to scholarship and a landmark in our western cultural development.

Preface to the Second Edition

With the presentation of this enlarged edition of the bibliography of the Prairie Provinces the bibliographer completes a project begun by happenstance twenty-six years ago. On a September afternoon on the University of Saskatchewan campus the president and secretary of the undergraduate English society, making their rounds of potential speakers for the winter roster, came upon me by chance and asked if I would speak on regional materials which creative writers might exploit. I was then the librarian in the Shortt Collection of Canadiana. In preparation for the talk to be given the following February, I began a card file of Western Canadiana titles, and have been collecting titles ever since. To the regional bibliographer the nineteenth and early twentieth century literature of the Prairie Provinces presents a greater challenge than would the literature of most other geographic areas, since such a high percentage of the publications was ephemeral, printed and distributed outside the region . In the search for these , I have at one time or another visited most of the major research libraries of Canada and the United States. In 1971 a Canada Council grant made possible a 70-day tour of national and other research libraries in seventeen European countries. I searched for immigration literature and for reminiscences published in the homelands of early pioneers. This odyssey was a bibliographical success. A long-time frustration was the inaccessibility of something described as the 'first document printed in Manitoba.' In 1875 it had been entombed, along with a miscellany of other things, in the cornerstone of the Winnipeg City Hall. Finally the wreckers caught up with the Victorian building, and No. 208 was added to the bibliography. Since so many of the early pamphlets related to immigration into Western Canada, it was unfortunate for me that the voluminous files of the old Department of the Interior remain closed to public access until they have been inventoried by the archival staff. However, in the nick of time for this bibliography, Miss Juliette Bourque, Librarian of the Public Archives of Canada, arranged to have her staff search the Interior files for Western pamphlets. En route home after a last fling in the Library of Congress, I visited Ottawa and in one day with the help of a strong-armed young archivist slung some 300-400 jam-packed archival boxes off shelves, ran an exploratory finger along the letters' edges to feel for hard-edged pamphlets, and then tossed the boxes back up on the shelves. As anticipated, the files were a well-stocked cache of immigration pamphlets. Among the sources listed in this compilation is one designated 'Tanghe.' This is a card catalogue located in the National Library containing 25 ,000 entries of publications relating to Canada from Confederation to 1900. The compiler was Mlle Madeleine Pellerin who combed many printed national catalogues and other bibliographical

Preface to the Second Edition

sources over several years. Through her searches Mlle Pellerin made a significant contribution to retrospective Canadian bibliography. I regret that the symmetry of the sequential numbering of entries has been marred by the inclusion of about 150 last-minute discoveries to which it was necessary to add the suffix 'A.' This came about by the last-minute search of the Department of the Interior files as related above, and to a lesser extent because bibliographers, book dealers, and librarians, on hearing that an enlarged Prairie Provinces bibliography was about to go to press, rushed new titles to the compiler. Since the bibliography was compiled over many years as a spare-time activity, and information was gathered from many sources and in many places, the work is not without inconsistencies in cataloguing and bibliographic styles. Some entries have copied the styles of printed catalogues and bibliographies in which they were found. Two source libraries have changed their names in response to the changing politics of our times, but 'R.E.S.' and 'St. Sulpice' have been retained as sources after individual entries. Likewise a few descriptive words and phrases with political overtones are less frequently used in Canada now than twenty years ago. The practical difficulties of making many changes in the text, rather than a bibliographical conservatism, account for the retention of the above features. As in the original bibliography, the closing date of publication of entries is 1953. However, a minimal attempt at up-dating has been the inclusion at the end of some subject lists of an addendum of some significant post-1953 titles. The choice of titles for inclusion has been highly selective from the increasing number of scholarly regional studies to appear in recent years. In the preface to the original bibliography I placed in the first rank of those to whom I acknowledged my indebtedness Miss Juliette Bourque and Mr. T.R. McCloy. Seventeen years later I again have occasion to thank these librarians. As explained earlier, Miss Bourque arranged access to the Department of the Interior archival files. Mr. McCloy, Librarian of the Glenbow Foundation (from which position he has recently retired), as he collected for his library sent me new catalogue entries. Another person who made this edition richer is Mr. Tom Williams, proprietor of Northland Books in Saskatoon (now of Calgary), who brought to my attention obscure pamphlets as these passed through his shop. The success of my grand tour of European libraries in search of Western Canadiana was greatly aided by preliminary letters in the language of each country, addressed to chief librarians. I am grateful to the eleven members of the University of Alberta library staff who wrote these letters; in one country I was complimented on the purity with which I wrote the vernacular. The European librarians who assisted me , too numerous to name individually, made my excursion successful and pleasant. With the assistance of the librarians of the leading newspapers in Western Canada the biographical information on several dozen authors in the first edition was enlarged. (One resourceful librarian, unable to find a man in her newspaper's 'morgue,' contacted the provincial Bureau of Vital Statistics and furnished me with an official death certificate.) I wish to thank all these librarians. Miss Ruth Buggey of the Free Press of Winnipeg was, as in the earlier edition, the biographical researcher to whom I am most indebted. xii

Preface to the Second Edition

The Historian of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, Mr. S.W. Horrall, proved that the famous force when put on the trail of an elusive individual can still get its man. In the University of Alberta Library office I appreciate the various typing services of the secretaries and, in particular, of Mrs. Shirley Meyer and Mrs. Donna Mulholland. Over the winter of 1971-72 Mr. Milton Pinsky was engaged to organize the enlarged bibliography, a tedious scissors-and-paste job. He made an important contribution to the preparation of this edition, and I thank him for the attention to detail which prevented many errors and inconsistencies. And finally I acknowledge the work of my wife Margaret whose careful reading of the manuscript has brought to it a higher degree of accuracy. As the work goes to press I would thank M. Jean Houston, Executive Editor of the University of Toronto Press, who guided the first bibliography, the supplement, and now this enlarged edition through the editorial and printing processes. With great forbearance she incorporated copy from a compiler who continued to send bibliographical corrections and newly discovered titles up to the last possible moment. This second edition has been published with the help of a grant from the Social Science Research Council of Canada, using funds provided by the Canada Council.

Preface to the 1963 Supplement

In the preface to the original bibliography, I wrote with some satisfaction, 'Within the limits here set forth an effort has been made to make the compilation complete.' Subsequent to publication I collected from time to time a few fugitive titles, but it was not until July of 1962 that I realized there were enough additional titles to justify publication of a supplement. While in Calgary during Stampede Week I sought refuge from the shouts of the cowhands and the bawling of the steers in the quiet coolness of the Library of the Glenbow Foundation. Here I saw many new pamphlets, strays missed in the earlier round-up. In this Supplement, Glenbow is the library most frequently cited as location; that so many scarce titles are in a library which has existed so short a time bespeaks diligent searching and a bibliophile's acquisitiveness on the part of Mr. T.R. McCloy, the librarian. Another source was microfilmed correspondence and records of the Church Missionary Society which, while mostly manuscript material, contained a number of little-known pamphlets. On one microfilm reel I was delighted to find a sermon by the Bishop of Rupert's Land printed in Winnipeg in 1868, earlier than any Winnipeg imprint previously known. Later I had the satisfaction of holding a copy of the booklet, owned by an enthusiastic collector of Canadian Prairiana, Mr. Nathan Arkin of Winnipeg; a contractor friend had found the booklet on the floor of an old house being demolished for a building project. The Arkin collection, it will be noted in the Supplement, was a happy hunting-ground for the bibliographer. When I checked the Library of Parliament I located some interesting pamphlets, and I wondered how I had overlooked such an obvious source ; then I recalled the Library of Parliament's fire which had made it impossible to examine the holdings of the library in 1953. The appearance in recent years of printed catalogues of major libraries and special collections has immeasurably assisted bibliographers and research students. When each batch of volumes of the British Museum's Catalogue of Printed Books arrives in our library, I hasten to examine it for Western Canadian items. And titles turn up in unlikely places; why does the Union Theological Seminary in New York own a unique pamphlet published in 1905 which encouraged the building up of treasures on earth by investing in Western Canadian lands? Last but not least of the sources were the Canadiana book dealers, who over the years in their catalogues have made available and drawn attention to pamphlets which were not in my original bibliography. I gratefully acknowledge the assistance of librarians and omers in suggesting titles for incorporation m the supplement, or in supplying other information. Those who sug-

Preface to the 1963 Supplement

gested titles were Mr. T.R. McCloy and Mr. Hugh Dempsey of the Glenbow Foundation, Mr. H.V. Dempsey of Ottawa, Mr. J.E.A. Macleod, Q.C., of Calgary, Mrs. June Fritch, editor of the Alberta Poetry Year Book, the Rev. Peter T. Ream of Fort Saskatchewan, Mr. Foster M. Palmer, Assistant Reference Librarian of Harvard University Library, and Mr. Guy Lyle, Librarian of Emory University. While Mr. Bernard Amtmann did not suggest titles directly certainly I am indebted to his catalogues as a source of titles. Others whom I wish to thank for assistance given by letter, or during visits to their libraries, are the following: Miss Marjorie Morley, Provincial Librarian of Manitoba, the Rev. T.C.B. Boon, Honorary Archivist of the Provincial Synod of Rupert's Land, Miss Edythe H. McCausland, University of Toronto Library, Mrs. Ginsberg of the United Church of Canada Archives, Miss Martha Shepard, Dr. Ian Wees, and staff of the National Library of Canada, Miss Dorothy Duke of the Dominion Department of Agriculture Library, and Mr. D'Arcy Beckstead of the Library of Parliament. Nor must I forget the contribution made by the typists, my secretary, Mrs. Shirley Meyer, Miss Josie Pochirowski, and particularly Mrs. Dorothy Sears, who typed from a difficult scissors-and-paste draft the final copy for the press. And finally I acknowledge the work of my wife whose careful proofreading has eliminated many an inconsistency or error in form and entry.

Preface to the First Edition

The compilation of this regional bibliography was begun in 1946. The nucleus for a bibliography of the Prairie Provinces was to be found on the shelves of the Shortt Collection of Canadiana in the University of Saskatchewan Library, which collection I was at that time engaged in cataloguing. While sleuthing for titles, I have at one time or another visited all the larger libraries in Western Canada, libraries in Ottawa, Montreal, and Toronto, and, in the United States, the New York Public Library and the Library of Congress in Washington. An important collection not examined was the Icelandic collection in the University of Manitoba Library. Printed catalogues of libraries such as that of the Royal Empire Society, and, in particular, catalogues of Canadiana collections, yielded additional books and pamphlets. Numerous books and bibliographies were also checked for Western Canadian items. In the case of the latter sources, I am reasonably sure that items included exist substantially as described. An exception, however, is the inclusion of some half-dozen titles about whose existence in book or pamphlet form I am not completely convinced; by listing them and giving sources I have alerted interested students. The scope of this bibliography is books and pamphlets relating to the Prairie Provinces. Towards titles relating to border areas restraint was exercised, since to have included certain of these would have involved the bibliographer with other titles whose content spread even further into the Rocky Mountains, the Arctic, Hudson Bay, and the Precambrian Shield east of Manitoba. The emphasis in the bibliography is centrical, directed towards the prairie region, that agricultural arc resting on the international boundary. A more difficult decision for the regional bibliographer had to do with books relating to Canada and containing material on the prairies. There are significant studies of national agriculture, marketing, economics, transportation, and politics which the student of the prairie region cannot ignore. Had these been included the bibliography would have had no limits. Accounts by early explorers en route to the Arctic or Pacific are, however, included; although only a small section of each might relate to the prairies, they contribute to our limited information on the period. Likewise, books by early transcontinental tourists are listed since most of them gave special emphasis to the agricultural possibilities of the region and doubtlessly influenced settlement. Pamphlets on the Canadian Pacific Railway during the period when it was being built have been included since it played such an important part in the opening of the West; but most books about the railway after it became established as a national institution have been excluded.

Preface to the First Edition

The hundreds of technical bulletins relating to prairie agriculture would, had they been included, have swamped the compilation. Students can find these bulletins listed in the Agricultural Index. The attention of students interested in the economic or social conditions of agricultural communities must be directed to the excellent regional surveys made by the regional branches of the Economic Division of the Dominion Department of Agriculture. British blue books relating to the Prairie Provinces have been listed, as have also early Canadian Sessional Papers, undoubtedly the best source of information on the West for the period of settlement ; no student of the period can ignore the annual reports of the Departments of the Interior and Indian Affairs, or those of the Commissioner of the North West Mounted Police. The publications of the governments of the three Prairie Provinces are excluded (with a few exceptions) because of their multiplicity. There is already available a check list, compiled by Miss Christine MacDonald, of publications of the Province of Saskatchewan and of the earlier North West Territories government. In the field of literature the original plan was to include all the works of prairie writers, but because of the recency of settlement and the mobility of the writers, I found it impossible to define 'prairie writers.' Some writers are expatriates who write of the lands from which they came. Writers of certain racial groups and religious sects, conscious of the rapid assimilation of their young people, set their fiction or drama in the ancestral homeland, pointing to their cultural heritage ; there are novels and plays about German colonies in southern Russia, and novels, plays, and poems about the Ukraine. Another group of writers are the half-dozen English yarn-spinners who in their adventurous youth lived in Western Canada and later used the region as the locale for their stories. The first of these was R.M. Ballantyne; the most prolific, Harold Bindloss. Regarding fiction, my final decision was that the sole criterion should be whether or not a work had a prairie locale. Thus, not all the writings of a prairie author are necessarily listed. The fact that such writers of international stature as Rudyard Kipling, Somerset Maugham, Moira O'Neill, Maurice Constantin-Weyer, and Sinclair Lewis are listed emphasizes the interest in the 'last, best West' during the early years of the twentieth century. A decision on poetry was more difficult. An attempt has been made to include that poetry which describes the prairie region, or poetry whose creator was unquestionably influenced by the prairie environment. Thus, a poet who was a child of the prairie would have his works included even if he wrote about the moon, but more selectivity was exercised in choosing works by poets who came to the region after they had reached adult estate. This latter policy is exemplified in the choice of Icelandic poetry. I have tried to collect the writings, published in languages other than English, of the many racial groups who settled on the prairies. First were the Indians; I have included translations of the Bible and religious works into Indian dialects because the work of translating was part of the early missionary endeavour and because these works are often little known and not infrequently rare . The user will notice the absence of some works relating to the Athapascan tribes which might rightfully claim a place in the bibliography, but to have included them would have involved as well the writings relatxviii

Preface to the First Edition

ing to all the tribes in the Mackenzie drainage basin as far as Aklavik. A significant feature of the writings in French is that so many of them were written by Old Country Frenchmen, the majority of whom were missionaries of the Oblate Order. To the items in French might have been added all the Canadian Sessional Papers, as these were printed in French as well as English. Works by prairie writers on non-prairie topics have been regarded as outside the scope of this bibliography. Their inclusion would have involved, among other types of material, a shoal of school books from primers to arithmetic texts. Scholarly studies have been omitted. To indicate their significance and number, one has only to mention a few of the publications of persons associated with the University of Saskatchewan alone: R. Altschul's Select Studies on Arteriosclerosis, V.C. Fowke's Canadian Agricultural Policy, H. Neatby's So Little for the Mind, M. Timlin's Keynesian Economics, N. Ward's Canadian House of Commons, R.A. Wilson's Birth of Language, and Essays in Honour of Arthur Moxon. Local imprints have been excluded as such. Little publishing is done in Western Canada with the exception of school texts, and writings in Ukrainian and Icelandic. Winnipeg is one of the important publishing centres of Ukrainian literature outside the Iron Curtain countries. Many of the publications relate to the question of the autonomy of the Ukraine or are reissues of the works of Old Country poets and writers. Winnipeg is also an important publishing centre of Icelandic. Serial publications have in general been excluded, but exceptions have been made for a few significant works. In fact, exceptions may have been made in any category. Within the limits here set forth an effort has been made to make the compilation complete. The largest number of fugitive items is probably in the fields of immigration pamphlets and privately printed verse. The arrangement of the bibliography is chronological, with fur-trade journals placed in their historical period rather than listed by date of publication. In this chronological arrangement a small number of entries are not in strict order; these are items which were arranged before the publication date - or the correct author entry - was known, and when this missing information was subsequently established it was too late to rearrange in the numerical sequence. For each entry full bibliographical details are given where the book has been examined, and as full as possible when the information was taken from other bibliographical sources. In a work compiled from many sources it will be appreciated that some inconsistency is inevitable. In the author entry, that portion of the name which does not appear on the title-page of a book has been enclosed in square brackets. In the matter of editions, the entries are usually for first editions with references to later editions and translations. For a few titles my information for a later edition was more complete, so I have chosen to give bibliographical details of that edition. My notes about editions are not always complete, particularly for twentieth-century titles; it is often difficult to ascertain that a work published in Toronto, New York, or London was also published in one or both of the other centres by the same or another publisher. The second section of the bibliography is a subject index, with the subjects arranged in broad groups and the authors arranged chronologically under each subject. The xix

Preface to the First Edition

chronological arrangement under subject is intended to enable the scholar to see the development of the literature in that field. The biographical notes contained in the author index are intended to identify the authors whose works appear in the bibliography, and to show their association with the West or with the topics of their books. With this in mind, the emphasis has been strictly regional. Where biographical information is readily available in standard reference works, the reader has been referred to those sources. Thus, persons of significance in the national life of Canada have in many cases been dismissed with a phrase, while obscure Westerners have been treated at some length. Because of the difficulty of obtaining biographical information about some authors, their sketches are little more than clues which the interested student may follow up. Because of this difficulty, and because of the regional emphasis, the sketches are uneven. The biographical material contained in the author index is essentially a by-product of the bibliographical research. Since the Shortt Collection of Canadiana is so frequently given as the location of items, a descriptive note is in order. The collection was originally the personal library of Adam Shortt, long associated with Queen's University, and later with the Dominion government as Civil Service Commissioner and as an archivist. As a collector, Dr. Shortt was in the enviable position of being personally acquainted with contemporaries who made and wrote Canadian history and with the families of Canadians prominent in an earlier generation. Through the foresight of Dr. W.C. Murray, first President of the University of Saskatchewan, and Dr. A.S. Morton, Librarian, this collection was purchased for the library of the University of Saskatchewan in 1918. However, the Western Canadian volumes now in the collection are mostly from the Prairie Provinces collection built up by Dr. Morton, who was an authority on the West in the fur-trade era. Many of the western ephemera were collected by Dr. Murray and Dr. E.H. Oliver then professor of history at the University - while they were going about the province on official business. This collection owes much to the selective purchases made over the years by Dr. Jean Murray, professor of history. Miss Barbara Hobbs (now Mrs. Harcourt Smith) while in charge of the collection from 1951 to 1955 showed ingenuity in locating and adding scarce prairie items. The assistance and co-operation I received from the many librarians and archivists whose libraries I visited is gratefully acknowledged; I wish to mention in particular the late Dr. J.L. Johnston, Legislative Librarian of Manitoba, Miss Juliette Bourque and Mr. T.R. McCloy of the Public Archives of Canada, and Dr. Willard Ireland and Miss Inez Mitchell of the Archives of British Columbia. My attention was directed to a number of items by Miss Edith Hilton of the Legislative Library of Alberta and Mr. Hugh Dempsey of the Alberta Department of Economic Affairs. Mr. Bohdan Kazymyra of the Ukrainian press suggested a score of Ukrainian titles and supplied me with biographical material for several Ukrainian writers. Of the librarians to whom I wrote for information I am especially grateful to the following for research on my behalf: Miss Georgina Thomson of Calgary, Mrs. J.C. Killen of Uoydminster, Miss Betty Carnie of Regina, Miss Ruth Buggey of the Winnipeg Free Press Library, Miss Elizabeth Dafoe and Mrs. Sigurbjornsson of the University of Manitoba, Miss Margaret Ray of Victoria University Library in Toronto, Miss Martha Shepard of the National Library, Dr. D.C. xx

Preface to the First Edition

Harvey of the Public Archives of Nova Scotia, Dr. Grace Lee Nute of the Minnesota Historical Society, Miss Ruth L. Butler of the Newberry Library in Chicago, Mr. R.D. Rogers of the New York Public Library, Mr. R.A. Wilson of the British Museum, and Mr. J. Packman of the Royal Empire Society Library in London. Dr. Carlyle King and Professor E.A. McCourt of the University of Saskatchewan, and Dr. Paul Yuzyk of the University of Manitoba, very kindly answered last-minute appeals from me. Inspector C.H. Bayfield, Headquarters Staff, Royal Canadian Mounted Police, tracked down some data on early members of the famous force. Special thanks must go to Miss Christine MacDonald of the Legislative Library of Saskatchewan, and to Miss Barbara Hobbs, Librarian of the Shortt Collection of Canadiana, who cheerfully answered my many requests for information, bibliographic and biographic. To Dr. W. Kaye Lamb and Dr. Jean Lunn of the National Library, Mr. David C. Appelt of the University of Saskatchewan Library, and Mr. Bernard Amtmann, Canadiana dealer of Montreal, for examining the manuscript while in preparation and offering suggestions. I acknowledge my indebtedness. Miss Marjorie Sherlock (now Mrs. H. Grayson-Smith) while Librarian of the Rutherford Library, University of Alberta, kindly granted time and library facilities for the completion of the manuscript; Miss Caroline B. Hicks, Chief Cataloguer, must also be thanked. And special mention must be made of the contribution of Margaret, my wife, who spent countless hours checking the copy. I wish also to record my indebtedness to Miss M. Jean Houston, Assistant Editor of the University of Toronto Press, who guided a difficult manuscript through the press. Dr. Lewis H. Thomas, Archivist of Saskatchewan, Dr. Geo. W. Simpson, Chairman of the Department of History, University of Saskatchewan, and Mr. John H. Archer, Legislative Librarian of Saskatchewan, by their interest in this compilation have assured its publication; I express my deep gratitude. The Canadian Social Science Research Council made a grant-in-aid in 1949 to assist in the preparation of the manuscript, and publication was made possible by the financial assistance of the University of Saskatchewan, the Saskatchewan Golden Jubilee Committee, and the Publications Fund of the University of Toronto Press.

The broadside was by the Reverent Griffith Owen Corbett, as both author and printer. The printing was crudely done, the work of an amateur. The hand-press used has not been positively identified, but would seem to have been one brought to Fort Garry for missionary purposes. For over fifteen years the bibliographer was aware of the existence of this 'first imprint' in the Red River Settlement but was unable to get access to the only copy known to be extant. The broadside had been entombed in 1875 with a miscellany in the cornerstone of Winnipeg's first city hall. Finally, 'progress' caught up with the old building. When it was demolished the broadside was given into the custody of the City Clerk's office. Winnipeg City Clerk's office
